The book one? Reading is reading no matter the medium.

The one about internet and water. I’m pretty sure if you’re lost and manage to find internet, you can contact someone and let them know your location so you can be saved

The selfie one? Go ahead and take the selfies. Have fun with friends. Make sure you have enough so that when your memory fades, you can have something to remind you of the fun times you had.

The block thing? Seeing someone you hate online is just as bad as seeing them IRL but blocking makes it a lot less likely

The social media and life? Apparently having a lot of friends, sharing stories and arts and shit doesn’t count as having a life? Some people cannot go out in crouded places due to anxiety or other reasons so the internet gives social interaction without the crowd.

The marriage invitation one? Who says you can’t send out physical invitations to those you have immediate contact to and set up the facebook event to inform those who live way out of town? Like family members that you can’t see on a regular basis? would you be willing to go to another state just to give someone a card or risk it getting lost in the mail?

And the last one, nothing important happens at school. Kids don’t write about school in blogs unless it’s so bad they can’t even tell their parents because parents don’t often give any reason for the kid to trust.



Instead of insulting this generations use of technology that you lacked and saying that’s what’s wrong with the country today, why don’t you look at the last generation who:
Fucked up the housing market
Made it impossible to go into college without crippling debt
Made the economy unlivable
Refuses to change with the ever changing world
